Highlights
Oceanside, once considered a military town because
of its proximity to Camp Pendleton, now enjoys
a reputation as a tourist-friendly destination.
Locals, families, and tourists alike enjoy Oceanside’s
beach and harbor. Its wide expanse of sandy, palm-covered
beach is perfect for swimming, sunbathing, surfing,
or simply romping in the blue Pacific. Oceanside’s
beach is adjoined by “The Strand,”
a main street that is excellent for strolling,
rollerblading, or bike riding. Volleyball courts
are set up along the beach, and the pier is considered
excellent for surf fishing.
Oceanside Harbor’s yacht basin offers
easy access to the Pacific as well as many shopping
and dining opportunities. Check out the Oceanside
Marina Inn for accommodations right on the marina!
Logistics
Oceanside City Beach has lifeguards, restrooms,
a snack bar and disability access. Restaurants
and assorted sundries are available at nearby
Cape Cod Village. Paid parking lots border both
sides of the pier. There is also a cheaper lot
east of the railroad tracks or you can park
for free along The Strand.
